If you're talking about how the ashtray won't close, as was the case with my car, it's a really easy fix. Inside the ashtray there is a blue 'L' shaped hook that hangs on a hinge. When the ashtray closes, the 'hook' on the 'L' grabs the ashtray so it won't open again. Then, when you push on the ashtray, the hook is dislodged and it is allowed to open. In my car (a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee) the ashtray wouldn't close because the hook came off. All you have to do is pull the ashtray all the way down (gently so it won't break), find the hook, and insert the hook back into the position (it is an obvious spot on the right side of the opening.) Ensure that it is allowed to slide up and down. If you've done this correctly, you should be able to close the ashtray again.
